The Banner will fly

[UNT90]

Tomorrow over campus from 12:30 to 1:30. Those in Denton please grab a pic. Please share on Twitter with whomever you think appropriate, especially UNT grads in the local sports media.

Why tomorrow? 

Well; the UTEP game is likely to be the lowest attended game in Apogee history, and tomorrow is the day before basketball season. The banner will be seen by students, and will also take a turn or 2 around the square before heading over campus. Much larger number of eyes will be turned upward. 

A billboard will cost, at the cheapest, $3400, and that is for a smaller one. If we still have the interest, I will open a gofundme account for that and I will be the first contributor. 

The banner needs to fly.

And it will tomorrow.

Nice job putting this in the recruiting forum.  I was concerned some of our potential new recruits might stop here and never go to the football forum to see the Winter of Discontent.

terrible mistake. It will be fixed.

Good stuff sir! Thank you!!!

Cancel it and get that banner to Knoxville. The game will be so out of hand so quickly the TV commentators would love to commentate on anything but what they are getting paid to talk about. Get. It. To. Knoxville.

The Volunteer fans are taking care of that for us.

The commentators would never mention it, as the latest it could fly is right up to one hour before game time. 

Local media is far more important. I have tweet several local media members, including the FWST writer who did the article about RV under fire.

the banner scheduling is worse than RV's.

The way I see it, the announced scheduling gets more eyes than flying on gameday. Only God knows what the weather will be like on November 28 and a large number of students will not be around for Thanksgiving weekend. IMO, UNT90 made the correct call to maximize exposure.

Says the cool, critical guy sitting on the sidelines doing nothing.

You want real change within UNT football? RV has to go. Truth. Lean in and accept it. Good job 90.

If a banner flies and no one notices, did it really fly?

If a Kram posts a snarky post, did he really post?

What if you fart in space? Does anyone hear?

Awesome. This will likely catch more eyes than it would had it flown over the Toilet Bowl UTSA game.

I think this is better than gameday. It keeps the dirty laundry in the family rather than broadcasting it to outsiders like a gameday would.

Oh, I've tweeted ESPN Dallas and all local sports guys that I can think of. Will they care? Most won't, but some will. 

Hopefully it's a slow sports day.

Gosh, that's swell of you.

I guess I could hang around and accept losing...

I still would prefer the billboard since we did not get to fly it at the last home game.

The cost of the billboard was really up there. The one smaller one was $3400 and not in a great location. I'll start another gofundme and if we can get there, it will be done.

How many  FireRV shirts could we make for that and hand out on campus? 

[UNTexas]

90, is there a go fund me for a banner again against UTEP?

37,231?

[EagleMBA]

37,231?

I would guess about 1% of your number.

At 12:30 on a random ass Thursday... What a bummer.
